This sounds like fun!

Candice

Send you an email

Great perspective! I like this idea.
And that looks like a fantastic breakfast. I might have to "lift" that idea. :)

Jennifer

I just found your blog...and it couldn't have come at a better time for me. I have been having the same feelings and all those pressures to get on more DTs, to get published etc. Every layout or project I did was so stressful because I was worried if it would be "good enough" All the fun and the purpose of my art was taken out of it. Thanks for giving me what I needed to read today!!

Nicole Stark

Lisa I couldn't have said it better myself. Especially after my year of MMM was over I really contemplated why I do what I do. And again just recently. I love the idea and think you are right on track:)

Michele in La

just found your project from Stacy's blog...you are definitely on to something here - this has been my philosophy for a long time - I have explained to people that (when I'm in the mood) I love to cook because I can be creative - I may start with a recipe, but always change it a little and most of the time I just look in the fridge and start from there.

I absolutely believe that if you are truly a creatvie person, *everything* you do is done in your creative way. You can't help it! The only time I get unhappy is when life is so structured and there are too many things I have to do (commitments to others like family or church) and I go to bed at night not having done anything for 'me' - which really means I didn't have time today to let my mind wander - do something creative, think about something creative, read about something creative....

I will try to play along and make a conscience effort - I wish you the best in your quest!

Katie Scott

Sign me up :)

Lisa

Count me in too! My family and I need some fun and creativity in our lives...simple things to help us enjoy every day.

Julie Johnson

I'm in! I am a better mom, better wife, better friend, better all around...when I'm creative and living in the NOW. This is exciting!

Kris B. in Rochester, NY

Sounds like a great way to creatively tackle the 365 project...I felt like after 2 months, I might be winding down, but looking at it as a way to challenge myself creatively might be just the push I need to keep on documenting something EVERY day! Count me in, too!

Dana

sounds great!

Julie B

my project 365 has been lagging... so a creative challenge is just what I need! =)

TracyBzz

Found your Creativity Project through Stacy's blog. I'M IN!! I just did Lain Ehmann's LOAD in February and it was awesome! Your project will really spill over into ALL areas (and people) of my life.

Noreen Smith

Hi Lisa...Great idea - please add me to the list! Lately I have been focusing on creating only for the sake of others (design teams and publication submissions) so I am ready to be creative JUST FOR ME! I am taking Stacy's LOM class at BPS and that is really helping me see more creative and authentic connections for my scrapbooking, so this is perfect timing! Let's create!

Gina Jackson

I'm in! What a cool idea. I get caught up in all the necessessities of the day and often forget to have fun! Thanks for the challenge.

Karen

hey lisa,
Just stumbled upon your blog and this whole idea of creativity has struck a real chord with me! I love the feeling that comes from being creative or creating something. I am not even a scrapbooker, but have varied interest, skills and talent, all of which have allowed me to express my creativity.I am so in on this project! Thank you for the inspiration!

Karen

DeuceMom

Thank you so much for starting this - it's so easy to get in a rut, particularly over the winter, and I think this is going to be so fun!

Leslie

I'm in! Look out world!

donna

xooxx
Lain

ScrappyMommy

Oh this sounds fun! I'm going to shoot off an email now!

Katherine McKamey

Hi! Lain sent me! I just finished her LOAD (Lay Out A Day) challenge and was really grooving with the creativity this month - I don't want to let the feeling go, either. So, I'm on board!! Now, I'm telling all of my friends! Wooo Hooo!!

Georgana Hall

I'm in & ready to feel inspired!!! Thanks for the great idea!

Deirdre

I've been looking for a Lenten promise that was about doing something rather than giving up something. I'm a week late but this is a great idea. Count me in too!

Danielle

I am definitely in I'm going to start today right now! Thank you so much!

Shanna

OMIGOSH! You are a total answer to prayer! I've been rolling empty ideas around in my brain for MONTHS on ways to make life with my kids and in our home a little more colorful & playful! This is EXACTLY what I needed! Thanks so much for the Inspiration! Please add me! I will be playing along and adding the badge to my blog! My first one EVER! I've avoided blinkies and badges like the plague but this time I am making an exception! WINK!

Wayfaring Wanderer

What a fabulous idea, I'm in! I didn't realize it, but I started yesterday before even reading your post.

I wanted to go out for a snowy walk, but then it turned into a snowy day sledding adventure!

Rebecca

I have not updated my blog in weeks, but I think...correction...I know I'm going to update it today with this! I've already started the month off with an effort to be more creative everyday and didn't even know about your Creativity Project until this minute. It's perfect!
blessings, Rebecca

ady abreu

The same thing happened to me last year and it totally depressed me but I did the same and I hardly post layouts anymore, only on my blog. So I'll take the challenge.

Amanda Ellaboudy

I am SO totally in! I found your challenge a couple of days ago and you've been haunting me ever since! Thanks, I feel like you knew this is exactly what I needed in my life right now and did it just for me! (ha! a girl can pretend, right?) Anyway, count me in please! I'm running into the ocean of creativity like a child, without a concern for what's next. ~A

Linda S

I would like to be included in this project as well.

Beryl

Hi Lisa - saw you link on Stacey Julian's blog... fantastic idea, could not have come at a better time!!! I've been needing a bit of a creative push lately! Sign me up, feel free to link to my blog!

Heather

I absolutely LOVE this idea! I have already made a commitment to be creative everyday but I tend to get forget that there are other ways aside from scrapbooking that I can be creative. I really love your dinner in a fort - that is just fabulous! You can count me in on this and I am putting my thinking cap on! Looking forward to seeing other's ideas as well. Will post the blinkie on my blog! Thanks!

asun

this project rocks!!!

Just discovered the Creativity Project this week through Gretchen's blog. Love the idea, and reading the comments here reminded me of something my 90-year-young friend said one day: "I try to do something creative every day, whether it's embroidery, quilting, drawing or just mopping the floor." She is truly an amazing lady (now she's 92). That became my watch-phrase: Do something creative every day. I wake up and begin thinking about my day and what I will do that's fun and creative (in addition to the have-to things). It gives me incentive to get through those not-so-fun tasks. Off to read more of your blog....

Dalon

I just learned of this project today via the blog "Adornit" - love your idea and I'm joining!!! Woohoo!!! My kids will be so excited - they love doing fun creative things too ... what a wonderful way to start the day - not only by looking at what fun we can do, but how creative can we be?!

Diane Herman

Hope its not to late to join in...this could be just the boost I need to get me out of a the rut I am in right now!
